inspired by this wonderful art made by @puppetmaster13u

So, Danny, cemented king and practically father of the Blob Ghosts and certified little shit.

Has found something new to play with.

For you see, despite his various kidnappings by the GIW Danny was never aware of there being a League of Earth's mightiest heroes at all. He off-handily mentioned them to Henry, who was now genuinely jobless because even though he never got told he knew he was jobless for helping Danny escape and Henry?

Henry did not want any part of this, he's just a civilian he doesn't want to meet the Justice League of all people!

Sadly, Danny did not care at all in the slightest.

Henry was then reminded of why Danny was valued by the GIW and why he also king class ghost entity (the only other known king class was the Ghost King who they barely have any information of). Because he easily, cleared the distance between Amity Park and Metropolis.

Henry, unfortunately, was not used to traveling at such speeds and was left hanging limply in Danny's arm as everything started spinning and thinking he might puke.

Danny, being the child that he is at heart, immediately starts calling out Superman's name. Superman, predictably and unsurprisingly, hears this and comes over questioning who was calling him.

Danny decides to be even more of a little shit by speaking in ghost speak even though just earlier he called out Superman's name in clear English. Henry, the de-facto translator, is out of commission right now so Superman is really just left guessing here.

Unless, you go with the fact that Kyrptonian is a dead language, and since Superman can speak and knows Kyrptonian, Danny's ghost speak is automatically translated to Kyrptonian.

Superman is, understandably, stumped by this occurrence and he may or may not form the idea that Danny might be a Kyrptonian.

Danny then gently places Henry down on the roof, pats him on the head, tells a few blob ghosts to keep an eye on their new littlest sibling while Dad has fun.

Then he turns to Superman, with the most feral, shit eating grin on his face. Cracks his knuckles, and then tells Superman that they're going to have a fight.

He wasn't asking, and before Superman could say anything he's already been punched through the air. Not that it hurt, really, mostly took him by surprise, but now Superman is now in a fight with what may or may not be a Kryptonian.

“Damian? Dami?”

Danny poked his head in through the door of the one of many living rooms in the manor. The lights above were off, but a few other fixtures had been positioned to cut jagged beams across the floor. The overall result left the back wall in a curtain of angular shadow. Only one shaded lamp broke it up, the small illuminated circumference revealing part of the desk it sat on and the chair behind it.

A chair in which Damian swiveled around to face him, visage dramatically lit from beneath.

“Daniel.”

“Danny.” The response was automatic, absentminded, and quiet as he stepped fully into the room. This certainly wasn’t what he was expecting.

“I saw the note. About borrowing one of my models? Sooooo, think I can get it back now?”

“Of course Danny.” His model spaceship was slid in front of the dim glow on the desktop. “I’m grateful to you for letting me borrow it. It is very well made indeed.”

“Cool. Coooolllll. Then don’t mind me while I just-” He tentatively approached one step closer.

“So well made in fact that I thought I would make a proposition.”

Danny’s eyebrows shot up into his hairline, but Damian pressed on before he could manage a response.

“I recently came into possession of certain… items, that I believe would be of great interest to you.”

A box was slid into view of the lamplight this time. Danny audibly gasped when his mind processed the brand and model number in prominent display.

“How did you get the newest satellite model already!? They’ve been sold out everywhere!”

“I have my ways Danny. And it could be yours if you so choose.”

It took great effort for Danny to tear his eyes away from the box and back to Damian, half-alive brain working just enough to still be suspicious.

“...Alright then. What kind of deal are you looking for? Free sneak out of the manor? Help with pranking someone? Messing with B’s stuff-”

“I think you know exactly what I want Danny.”

The response was a weary sigh. “Dami, we talked about this. I know you take good care of your pets but-”

“You keep Cujo as a pet, and he’s capable of far more damage than a blob-ghost.”

“Yes, but I also trust Cujo to know how to go home through a portal on his own. I don’t wanna risk one sticking around where it shouldn’t.”

Damian turned his chin-up further in defiance, gaze steady as another box slid into view.

“I know you have your reasons Danny. But are you certain there’s nothing I can do to convince you?”

Danny sucked in a breath. “How? Where?”

“Unimportant. What is important is whether you think this ordeal is really worth the trouble over concern for a creature that would be looked after with the utmost attention in the first place.”

He bit the inside of his lip, holding back the urge to float over and stare at the impossibly rare model kits. This was fine. He didn’t need to have them. They definitely weren’t on his wishlist for months before they had even been listed for purchase online.

“Dami. Please.”

Danny stared at Damian. Damian stared at Danny. The two held eye contact for several seconds before Damian finally looked away with a pout. Danny tried to give a placating smile in return as he approached the other boy and ruffled his hair.

“Come on baby bat. We can go take over the TV and watch something.”

Damian sniffed. “Fine. I guess it’s just a shame that I’ll have to return this.”

There was a burst of white light as Damian turned the tablet in his hands to show the order page it displayed to Danny. He felt his eyes bulge, mouth clicking open and shut several times as he tried to form a coherent thought.

……

Bruce wouldn’t notice just one blob-ghost would he?

@breannasfluff boop.

I tried.

Also lost track of the initial prompt list that sparked this.

And probably shouldn't have chosen to write this so close to when I go to bed.

AND probably should have double checked how to properly format text around dialogue.

Practical Interview

Alright Danny, just breathe.

It’s just a job interview. No biggie. Just relax.

Jazz helped you with your resume, all you gotta do is go in there and 1. Not sass, but talk to them, 2. Maybe show ‘em a couple moves, 3. Pray I get the job.

…

Man, is that a tall tower.

.

.

.

Alrighty, in you go Fenton.

Danny has to dodge a blue laser bolt, which hits his precious resume, the moment he steps through the doors.

“Hey! Watch where your shooting, man!”

Great, nailed that first step.

The Teen Titans are fighting a large group of villains, kinda being overwhelmed, if he’s being honest?

Well, guess this’ll be one of those “learn on the job” type-a thing.

TL:DR, Danny has Jazz help him make a hero-resume for the Teen Titans since they don’t have any sort of tryouts or job application.

Isekai: Old Hero New World

[lurukifennecfox]

DP x DC Astronaut Danny

he figured stuff out with his rouges he fixed his grades and now he's in space outside the space station he works at fixing stuff!! also he's without a suit and singing the "great asset to the company" but that's beside the point.

he's in space without a suit because he can. and the song is catchy and very funny in this particular situation- where did the wrench go?

Danny is in some sort of meta program and even if he doesn't have the meta gene (which as he found out did run in the family at least by dad's side which explains his... kool-aid-mannes) he does count as a member of extraterrestrial species.

there's the wrench! "hey can you please get that wrench for me?" a perk of ghost voice (not to be confused with ghost-speak the language) is that it doesn't need much substance to carry

[the person who danny asked for the wrench is whoever of your choosing]

im having fun

[mysticbeaver]

I find it interesting that potentially NONE of the kids have any friends/acquaintances outside the cul-de-sac. I know it's only cause there was a hard-set rule of not introducing other characters, but think about it... The parents' are still mentioned, their presence (or absence) is implied throughout the show. It would make sense in the school setting for some of the kids to even casually mention someone they know in some class/school club or whatever, especially Nazz or Kevin cause they're the most likely to make easy friends, and yet they don't. Especially Kevin, who seems stuck with Rolf as his only "best bro" lol

[rebelliouswhirlpool]

If there’s one thing I’m grateful for it’s that I was able to watch Danny Phantom as a kid bc apparently Danny Phantom is an eternal fandom that never sleeps nor dies, and thus every so often when the mood strikes I can dip back into it, and do so easily bc the Knowledge of Canon has been in my brain since I was small

[princedevitt]

Now that i am pleased with the colouring of my LA gifs, i wish i could go back and fix the old ones. 😫

[cryptic-cryptid]

I went absolutely off in the tags of another post about this, but heres the video. I am the only danny phantom fictive in the system, this joke doesnt apply to anyone else in our system, and besides that its an actual joke i make all the time when i vape. Also, i found it posted in a discord server under my proxy but i 10000% did not film this or post it. DID is fun /s /lh

[redandblackpoetry]

Fun idea! But the interesting thing about history and teaching history (especially more so if you know what actually happened and no one else ) is you gotta back what you say up with evidence

I can imagine Danny going through schooling to get his masters and arguing these batshit crazy points to his professors (from their view) and eventually they just yell where are you finding this! Show me the textual and archaeological evidence!

Cue Danny having to hunt down lost archaeological evidence like Indiana Jones relying on the spotty testimony of various ghosts who tell him "oh I left it here 3500 years ago? Maybe my mother moved it after I died she lived 20 miles away in a city that was destroyed 5 years after my death."

The professors would go insane if he actually showed up to class with actually never before seen evidence.

I feel like he'd get very much wrapped into people begging him to find this or that long lost thing and oh he'd really just become like Indiana Jones if he didnt have Dani to take care of. Maybe he'd bring her with? Ghost children are very sturdy against rival evil archaeologists...

Professor Fenton of Gotham University.

Cutest Dani with Papa Professor/Teacher Danny, who is teaching history at Gotham University. (As he can just meet historical people in the ghost zone.) +

After the years did go by, Danny was able to do better with his enemies; he was a teacher! Ghost Writer and Clockworks fault + small but of Mr. Lancer, and in the Zone he was able to meet historical figures pretty easily. + That was how Danny became the youngest professor in the US with his master's thesis in history.

And then he became a professor in Gotham; his students weren't sure how to feel about a teacher their age or younger. But ironically, he was the best teacher they ever had at the university! So people had no problem.

And Danny showing off his baby girl, Dani, is fun for him too! Hey, the job makes sure his daughter Dani can go to the university for free in the future. And his students really like Dani! + Adult Danny and Ellie Look i had before me. (Manhwa:" male lead's little lion daughter)

And Cassandra Cain was a pretty good person who spent time with Dani. When she visits the University for Tim, she found Dani.. And kind of forgot she wanted to visit Tim. + Wayne Manor Tim:" I fear my professor will become my brother-in-law." +Extra+ Archaeologists:" I dreamed and worked my whole life to find a book handwritten by Shakespeare!" Professor! Danny: " I have like 3 of them and gave 1 to my teacher for an A+ in history and English for the rest of the year. Man, Mr. Lancer did cry for like 2 weeks after that."

+ And to the Archaeologist's horror, it's really an original one. They found Mr. Lancer of Amity Park, who proudly showed them the book. So many historians and Archaeologist don't leave Danny alone; they know he has a lot of things like that but no idea where he hides them!

[savanir]

The What Corps?

“we have you now spook! there is nowhere you can run and hide with our new spectral tethers active!”

Danny winces at the small metal clips that have hooked themselves in his leg, some new GIW tech that is messing with his powers.

“oh yeah? I was just dying for you guys to give me a challenge” plan. plan. He's gotta think of a plan to get out of here and fast. He takes a steadying breath and starts to look for anything that can help him.

he can’t get caught here. He just can't. He simply won’t allow himself.

suddenly the two GIW goons in front of him click their earpieces to clearly listen to what someone else is telling them, Danny is very glad for his own enhanced senses.

“Operatives K and O, be advised, there have been sightings of a new ectoplasmic entity near your location. Other operatives report that it’s incredibly small and moves fast. watch your backs, this may be an ambush”

small and fast? it better not be some poor little blob ghost, Danny sort of hopes it’s some manner of ectowasp, at least that could be entertaining to see.

“you better not be hoping for back up, ecto scum”

“I have no idea what you are talking about”

It's then that a small bright green light zips on scene and weaves through crowds in the distance with ease and then speeds up towards the two operatives who do not hesitate to shoot, missing completely like the storm troopers they are.

Whatever it is, it is indeed going very fast but Danny manages to figure out what it looks like and it appears to be a… ring?

“hold it you tiny accessory shaped ecto fiend!”

The ring does a speedy circle around Operative O while K is lining up a shot and ends up blasting the poor guy point blank in his face, “O!”

Danny takes a step forward with an arm outstretched and a “oh damn! Are you alright?” on his lips when the ring takes the chance to slip on his finger. “Daniel Fenton of Earth”

Danny already had a freakout about a ghost jewelry getting on him, his experiences with those so far have been incredibly bad after all, what with the rings and crowns and pendants… now this damn thing is just straight up outing him! 

Thank the ancients the two GIW stooges are too busy with each other right now to pay close attention to what this weird ring is saying.

“You have the ability to overcome great fear” ah so this is related to him steeling himself just now? Maybe? or something??

You have been chosen” never good, we are back to freaking out again.

“Welcome to the green lantern corps” 

… the what?

Danny notices that his usual outfit suddenly has more green going on, and his DP symbol has some sort of… he guess it’s supposed to be a lantern, maybe? shape around it.

He’s somehow even more glowy now, and there is something on his face. Feeling its shape makes him think it’s some sort of mask.

The metal clip things are no longer attached to his legs though so that’s great!

“You’re not getting away so easily ecto scum! sentient ghost paraphernalia coming to your rescue or no!” They both aim their weapons to take a shot.

Danny figures he can now easily hold them back with his usual shields,“you guys realize you just called this weird ring sentient and thereby negate the whole nonsentie-ack!”

“Attacking a corps lantern is punishable offense as of the instatement of the galactic diplomatic immunity as declared by the-” Okay so now Danny is just raising his eyebrow at this weird as fuck ring. Just what is it going on about?

“notifying nearby lanterns and requesting assistance with apprehension of hostiles”

what?

“getting your friends to help you out vile spook? such a thing is useless with the Blackout still very much in place”

Well… the two streaks of green light in the distance is making Danny doubt that statement.

Maybe there is more to this Lantern corps thing than he thought… And something tells him his life is about to get even more complicated than it already is.

Food fight

Danny wondered why he thought anything would be any different.  He sometimes wondered if the only reason Sam and Tucker hung out was because of him.  They two had started the same argument they did in freshman year, basically the day after he died!  Danny didn’t know why he expected anything different to happen. 

He thought that maybe by moving away from Amity and all the stress from highschool would help.  He thought that maybe if they moved to a city with its own heroes, they wouldn’t have to do anything or worry.  He thought that maybe they would be able to have a normal college experience.  But of course, his damn Fenton luck caused this.  

The fight had escalated, there was no coming down from this.  He was exhausted and couldn’t deal with this.  His ghost sense went off and he almost cried, too tired to put up with anything.  He felt a gentle hand on his shoulder.  “Don’t worry love.  I’ll take care of these troublemakers.  Interrupting lunch…those hooligans…”  Lunch Lady said.

When Sam and Tucker turned to him, asking his opinion, he glared, eyes flashing green.  He stood up with his bag.  He pointed and they turned, spotting Lunch floating there, drumming her fingers on her arm, glaring.  Danny then disappeared, leaving the cafeteria and going ghost, flying off.  Sam and Tucker looked at one another and back to Lunch.  “Shit…”  They said.  

“You should all be ashamed for interrupting lunch!  Lunch is sacred!”  She yelled, raising her arm as meat surrounded her.

Sam and Tucker quickly dodged the meat she launched, years of practice giving them a leg up.  They had to find Danny.  “What the heck is that?!”  Poison Ivy yelled, blocking the meat with a plant.  

Nightwing dodged, as did Red Robin.  Sam and Tucker chose to leave, running off to search for Danny.  “Hey wait!  You know her!  What is she?!”  Red Robin yelled.

Sam and Tucker ignored him, leaving the cafeteria.  Lunch glared at the two of them but refocused on the people in front of her.  Some students kept eating in peace so she gave them a cookie for their troubles.  They thanked her.  

Danny landed on a building, switching back to human form.  He sighed and sat down, pulling out his laptop and notebook.  Might as well get something done while he stayed away.  His phone was buzzing but he ignored it.  His ghost sense went off.  He looked up.  A cookie appeared in front of him.  He smiled, taking it from the air in front of him.  He felt something ruffle his hair.  He chuckled and began to munch on the cookie.  

Red Robin and Nightwing were trying to deal with the meat monster.  Ivy and Waylon ran, leaving the two vigilantes to handle the problem.  They called in assistance, the fight having moved outside.  They couldn’t even touch the woman.  Nothing they did worked.  It just went through her.  She glared, slapping Nightwing with a steak.  She grabbed Red Robin around the ankles with sausage, throwing him across the street. 

Signal was the first to show up to assist and he was rightfully confused.  A flying, somewhat transparent woman with the ability to control meat was attacking.  That checks out.  Just a normal day in Gotham.  She was bright as well, a strange glow in his vision.  Batman showed up next, equally confused.  Nothing they did worked at all.  The woman just got angrier, yelling about them disrupting lunch, how food fights were not allowed.  “If food fights aren't allowed then what are you doing?!”  Red Hood yelled as he arrived.

She instantly threw a whole turkey at him, sending him crashing to the ground.  Batman helped him up.  They were all covered in meat juice at this point, the ground slippery.  Civilians were confused and scared.  How were they supposed to beat something they couldn’t even hit?!

Sam and Tucker were looking for Danny, frantic.  The boy just vanished and they realized their mistake.  They had promised each other they wouldn’t do this anymore, they wouldn’t pull Danny into their arguments, they wouldn’t have arguments.  Or at least they wouldn’t let them escalate to where they did.  But they did, and Danny ran off.  “I think I found him!”  Tucker said, holding his PDA.

They were lucky that Tucker saved his ecto signature in the PDA.  They began to go to the location.  The dot moved.  They paused.  They scowled at it.  Danny probably saw them coming and was still annoyed.  They didn’t blame him.  They had been trying to text him and call him, but he didn’t respond.  They heard a noise behind them and turned around, spotting Danny sitting on a ledge, leg dangling, eyes glowing slightly, an unimpressed look on his face.  “Danny…”  Sam started.

“Ah.  If you are going to ask me whose side I’m on, you can go ahead and shut up.  I’m so tired of this.”  Danny said, holding up his hand.

“Look dude.  We are so sorry…”  Tucker said.

“You always say that!  Yet shit like this keeps happening!  I sometimes wonder if you two even like each other!  You're always fighting and I can’t take it anymore!”  Danny cried, pulling on his hair.  

They both realized just how stressed he looked.  The boy had been walking on eggshells and finally broke one.  He was just so tired.

“I don’t want another empty apology.”  Danny said.

“Then we will give you a promise.  We promise to never, ever drag you into our arguments.  We promise to make sure they never end up like this.”  Sam said, taking Danny’s hands.

“We promise to do better with not having these arguments in the first place.”  Tucker added, putting a hand on Danny’s shoulder.

Danny smiled.  He could take improvement.  He could take work in progress.  He hugged the two of them.  His eyes widened.  “You two left Lunch to terrorize the vigilantes…”  He said.

“Fuck…we did.”  Sam said.

Danny facepalmed, white rings traveling him as he switched into ghost form.  He sighed, running a hand through his white hair.  “I’m just gonna go tell her to knock it off.”  Danny said, floating up.

Sam and Tucker nodded as Danny flew off.  

The bats were at a loss for what to do.  The floating meat controlling lady was causing chaos.  Ham and steaks layed on the street as she continued to attack them.  They didn’t know what to do.  All of a sudden a green blast of energy shot the arm of meat that was coming down at them.  “Hey Lunch, knock it off please?  I really don’t want to do this.”  An echoing voice said.

Lunch Lady looked up at the floating boy.  She smiled and floated up to him.  She handed him a cookie, patting his head.  She opened a portal and went through, leaving the floating boy.  He looked at the heroes, cookie in hand.  “Seriously?  Aren’t you guys like, professionals?  How could you not deal with her?  She was my first opponent, and she wasn’t even trying.  She was just upset.”  The flying glowing boy said, white hair blowing in a wind that wasn't there.

The boy took a bite of the cookie.  The vigilantes started trying to ask questions.  He groaned and held up a hand.  He finished his cookie, gave them a peace sign, and flew off.  The bats were left wondering what the hell just happened.

New place, same fight

Danny loves his friends, they have been with him since they were little and they have experienced too many things together, things that have helped them grow, things that only strengthen their friendship. Because Sam and Tucker were everything to him, as he was everything to them.

But at the same time, Danny could admit that he hated his friends; not always, but there were times where they wouldn't stop fighting, where they forced him to choose. The halfa could understand, Sam and Tucker had different world views, they saw different things and occasionally Danny thought they only got along because of him.

That was okay, he learned to live with them, to be the center of their arguments. And when they moved from Amity to Gotham, when they decided to rent an apartment together and go to the same college (which miraculously had all their majors), he thought everything would be fine.

It was idiotic of him. Because at the time he could only see a repeat of what had happened in high school; Sam was having a protest about the cafeteria menu and Tucker had organized the meat lovers (again), and the halfa knew how it was all going to end.

The point is, Danny was tired of repeating the same cycle, a cycle that apparently included Waylon and Poison Ivy fighting in the cafeteria at his new college (and how the hell did his friends manage to get the Rogues of Gotham into their fights?), so when he saw the people in bat suits he exploded.

When Sam and Tucker turned to ask his opinion he shook his head, pointed at Lunch Lady, who had her arms crossed and decided it wasn't his problem before disappear. Literally, no matter if half of Gotham was calling him meta, he was tired.

Red Robin gawked at him before turning his attention to Lunch Lady, who was gathering all the meat around her to form a giant meat monster. And Danny decided it wasn't his problem.

Apparently, Sam and Tucker decided that the bats could take care of it before they looked worried and started looking for Danny. It became obvious that the bats needed help when Danny looked at a giant meat monster two hours later, the halfa arched an eyebrow in dismay, weren't they supposed to be professional heroes? Lunch wasn't even trying...

[radiance1]

When the Justice League heard of Phantom, they believed they had to act quickly. Based on what they were told by the GIW, a branch of the government they had no knowledge of previously (Batman is working to correct that), the ghost was dangerous and extremely powerful.

A ghost that terrorized a small town that they GIW have tried-and failed- on numerous occasions to send back to the Ghost Zone. The GIW wouldn't have come to the Justice League for help if it were just that, but based on what they have claimed Phantom has achieved an inexplicable rise in power after having met with the King of ghosts himself.

If what they say is true, then ghosts could potentially invade and cause an all-out war with humanity that the Justice League would rather much avoid thank you.

Negotiations for peace or understanding have been repeatedly rejected and the GIW has been led to believe that Phantom has done something to the Fenton couple. The leading ecto-biologists in the world, years of research suddenly wiped clean off and acting much more cordial towards the ghost.

A complete 180.

So much so that you could even claim them to have been mind controlled. Which isn't outside the realm of possibility due to ghosts having an innate ability to overshadow others and control them.

Perhaps even the entire town has fallen under Phantom's control. Even another ghost, who had just been recently opposed to Phantom, has fallen under his control.

So the Justice League had to act fast.

---

Danny was fucked.

He could tell that very, very well. He still didn't have his entire new... dragon thing... under control very well, mostly sticking a half human like form. His powers were stronger yes but he couldn't really control them well.

Which is kinda why he's fucked.

Danny has never heard about the Justice League before, mostly because he had recently found out that apparently Amity Park was isolated. Like, extremely. Basically it's own little world cut off from the rest.

So when they appeared with the GIW he thought, hey, maybe they were finally changing their white suit shtick.

He didn't expect them to be extremely well-trained, have supernatural abilities or magic. Along with their usual tech well.

Yea.

Danny was fucked.

And he was very, very scared.

He's already died once but that didn't mean he wanted to die again, and he knows that he would probably be heavily experimented on if the GIW actually got their hands on him.

He was alone. He was surrounded. He was outnumbered. And he was oh, so very scared.

His family and friends had already fallen (thankfully not dead, just unconscious he thinks) and Vlad was occupied elsewhere, also fighting.

So Danny was alone.

No one would be coming to help him.

So what did he do?

He opened his mouth and did something he didn't do often. Despite that he could see that they somewhat recognized what he was about to do and tried to find cover.

Danny wasn't aiming at them.

He pulled his head back, mouth aimed at the sky.

Danny wailed.

It was waaaay more powerful than he had originally thought, so he was glad he aimed it at the sky.

As soon as it was over he felt drained, swaying on his feet and trying to use his tail to steady himself and not fall off his own claws.

They didn't know what was happening.

Danny just hoped it worked.

---

Neither the Justice League nor the GIW knew why Phantom shot one of his most powerful attacks up into the sky, but they did see the opportunity it presented.

Phantom was weak. Looking like he would fall off his own feet and fall unconscious.

They had to act quickly.

But before they could, from right where Phantom had wailed into the sky.

It cracked.

And continued to crack.

Until a large hole appeared in the sky, leading into a dimension of endless green.

The Infinite Realms.

They believed Phantom was trying to retreat.

They were wrong.

Two roars came from the portal, forcing everyone to cover their ears.

Then.

Something came out of the portal.

A long, serpentine dragon flowed out, flying around the area of the crack before descending down and around Phantom.

Then.

A giant claw grabbed onto the edge of the crack. Pushing against it until it broke, forcing the hole bigger and bigger as a much, much larger dragon stepped out. Standing protectively over the serpentine dragon and Phantom.

A large crown wrapped in flame floating about its head signified its status.

The Ghost King.
